This is not really a game, but a tool to create artwork/graphics. It's very easy to use, all you need to do is continuously select the best or most interesting image you see on the screen.
What you see are randomly mutating images, generated from a code (which is displayed at the bottom). When you click on one of the 16 images, you get the full-size version at the right and all images start mutating from that point, so you get lots of mutations of your selected image. If none of those turn out to be any good, you can click on the large image, which will restart the current code. You can go back to a previously selected image by pressing BACKSPACE.
Sometimes an image will change just before you click on it and you get an unwanted mutation. In that case, press SHIFT+BACKSPACE.
Other keys you can use are:
M: fast mutation
S: change size (256x256 / 512x512)
T: transparency on / off
R: reset all
+ / -: change length of code
CTRL+C / CTRL+V: copy / paste code
Once you have found an image you want to use for something else, you could capture the screen and save it as a bitmap, but the idea is to save the code (which is of course a lot smaller) and generate the image when you need it. At the moment the code to generate images is only available in haXe: ArtGen.hx (but it shouldn't be too hard to port this to as3).
Here are a few examples of codes you can try (copy and paste them into the program):

Enjoy, and if you find a really nice code, post it in the comments!
Interesting concept
I think it might be interesting if instead of sampling once every second (or however fast you're doing it) have it sample continuously. It would make it look much smoother, though it would also take up more processing power. Perhaps have an option to set the speed for the mutation, since it looks like you already have a key that toggles mutation speed.
tense
Man, this game has no sense, try to do something better next time .
Well, good try .
Something new...
Well, this is not my tipe of "game", but it is something new and intresting...
=P
something different
Unusual & intriguing, This is something different, many possibilities. very colorful, very cool.
Cool!
This is a cool idea, fun to play around with. I might actually use this to make a cool desktop background. My only suggestion would be to make it look nicer - maybe fancy it up with some toolbars or windows to put around the different sections, make it look more pro.
